landmannnn Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 They aren't that stable. On fast comps you will struggle to be competitive, on others your light weight and short wheel base will be an advantage. Don't worry too much, I'd say just go out and enjoy it. After all, however highly spec'd your motor is you wont win without experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesvfr Posted September 20, 2009 Author Share Posted September 20, 2009 A bit of encouragement is what i like to hear Im not fussed about winning just having fun + being able to use it for more than just ccv's + play days Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry Webster Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 Yes definitely go out and give it a go. Drive at your own pace and back off if it becomes a problem. If you get the comp bug, then doubtless you'll ultimately want something with a longer wheelbase, but there is certainly no harm in getting out there with what you've got. Pitching will be one problem, the ability to swap ends in short order another, but as long as you are prepared you can deal with these things. It'll be fun! But as has already been said you'll win in the twisty bits! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
